How to Shrink Your Compose Desktop App by 10x

Standard Compose Multiplatform desktop applications bundle the JVM and Skiko, which can easily push your final installer size past 70MB–100MB.

If you want a sleek, ultra-lightweight desktop app without ditching your Kotlin Compose codebase, there is a brilliant hack: compile your app to WebAssembly (WASM) and wrap it inside Tauri. Tauri leverages the system's native WebView and a lightweight Rust backend, dropping your app's footprint down to just a few megabytes.

exFAT support on macOS seems to have some bugs because my external drives with exFAT formatting will randomly get corrupted.

If Disk Utility is unable to repair, consider trying this:

In Disk Utility, ensure that the drive is not mounted, eject it if it is mounted.
Use diskutil list to find the right drive id.
You want the id under the IDENTIFIER column, it should look like disk1s1
Run sudo fsck_exfat -d <id from above>. eg sudo fsck_exfat -d disk1s3
-d is debug so you'll see all your files output as they're processed.

The list would not be updated for now. Don't write comments.

The count of contributions (summary of Pull Requests, opened issues and commits) to public repos at GitHub.com from Wed, 21 Sep 2022 till Thu, 21 Sep 2023.

Because of GitHub search limitations, only 1000 first users according to amount of followers are included. If you are not in the list you don't have enough followers. See raw data and source code. Algorithm in pseudocode:
